mah boi.

His lyrics are self-indulgent garbage.I am not impressed with them, or with any aspect of his music.

Except the videos, those are pretty good.

His albums are great when I want to spend 60 minutes listening to samples from obscure 70's and 80's diva bands and how oppressed black people are.

wow. you dont know lyrics i guess...

i used to like his music. before the major hype and when he was more humble.

now he spends too much time trying to be different and less time on his music

Hanson is the best you can do? Hanson, really?

Not sure I've even heard/read about them in the last 15 years bro. And they had like 2 hit songs to begin with.

They still have more money/recognition than most on this site.

And that was my point. No talent, teeny bopping hacks still do.

And you are exactly the reason that painfully subpar music is so popular. If those are your yardsticks, I weep for the future of music. What exactly does ANY of the things you mentioned do towards proving the point that he is anything but average at things pertaining to music? I dont hate on him more than anyone else, I think most if not all mainstream rap/popular music is absolutely mediocre, but what do I know? Not like I studied music theory, taught myself instruments, went to recording school, worked in studios (on his 808's and heartbreak album funnily enough). None of that matters if all people want is some random asshole who spouts at the mouth, makes way more money than any non-public-service occupation should make, has the ability to loop beats on a synth, can work an 808 drum machine, and lives the life they all wish they could live. Actual musicality and talent be damned. He can rap, and he's got catchy beats. I dont hate the guy, which is more than I can say for most music nowadays, but your post worries me. No wonder anyone who can actually can align tape, record analogously, is well-versed in the acoustic merits and nuances of a recording space, can tell you what mics are better for what frequencies, can use a room as an instrument, knows how to work a mixing board cant get a job. Its all beat-making components, copy and pasting, and sampled music.....

An overweight white guy with too much facial hair, obviously.
